I think digital comics will sell well, and it's probably the smart thing for companies to do at this point. I imagine most people would rather have hundreds of comics on their Kindles or iPads instead of having them in boxes taking up space in the attic.

does anyone know if dynamite entertainment or BOOM studio's is going digital as well?

I've just recently gone digital with comics, and I love it. I never really got in to comics, but thanks to going digital I've absolutely fallen in love with them now. I mainly use comixology, who has 46 different publishers including DC and all of it's imprints, Image and all of theirs, IDW (just Transformers stuff [ATM at leas]), Boom, Dynamite, TokyoPop (no Trek sadly), and Dark Horse (all they have so far are the is one Hellboy issue and one issue of Helm). I just read them on my PC laptop and I've had no problems with it. They do have their own apps for phones and tablets, though.

I've tried reading comics on computer screens and like e-books I just get a migraine. As long as it doesn't replace print completely, I don't care if they put comics out on the back of matchbooks as an alternative. But I imagine the company that "slabs" comics is probably getting a bit worried. All we need is to have a company go digital-only and suddenly the entire comic book collecting industry will find itself with a glass ceiling. Certainly the future of comic collecting is going to be in jeopardy. Can you slab a flash drive?

There is another part of the site that deals with paper comics, but think that's more of a database, I don't think they sell them.Here's the main page for the paper comics, if you want to get back to the digital there from there just click comics by comixology. I just checked and you can't buy the paper comics from comicxology, but they do link to Things From Another World.

For anyone who wants to see how their digital comics work, here's this week's free digital sneak peek from DC. (The comics featured are the one that just came out in physical format this week, not digital).

Marvel sort of has the digital comics unlimited archive thing as well. It's kind of like 'renting' the comics instead of owning them for a monthly or annual price, but it's handy for catching up on older issues.

A couple of years ago there was also those digital collection software (Which are now mostly hard to find), but the quality on some issues was kind of so-so.
